Why not package it up and put it in PyPI? Better there than sitting in an email thread of some mailing list full of crazy people. :)
I would actually prefer a place where it's easy to see the code, comment on it and fork it like Bitbucket or Github. PyPI is good for other

And put it on PyPI to make it more accessible.
As soon as there are some more goodies in there beyond the enumerator and constants themselves. I can see that a namedtuple - like utility function could be interesting to create the enums - and a way to import the generated constatnts to the current global namespace that does not violate good pratices. I think that something like: class MyEnum(Enum): RED, GREEN, BLUE load_constants(MyEnum, globals() ) is a good solution that could respect both DRY and "explicit is better than implicit" and "Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules." js -><-
